ISLIP, NY

April, as of the end of Sunday, had seen 16 of its first 21 days register precipitation at the Long Island MacArthur Airport in Ronkonkoma, from just a trace up to three quarters of an inch. In all, 3.22 inches were recorded, 0.12 inches above normal for that stretch.

No hint of a shower is expected Wednesday but clouds are in the forecast before the sunny returns, heralding a clear night, meteorologists said.

"Temperatures are going to be low to mid-60s this week, maybe a few degrees above normal but nothing out of the ordinary to talk about," Buccola said.

The highs will vary by location, said News 12 Long Island meteorologist Bill Korbel. The North Shore could reach the low 70s, while the temperature is expected to hit the mid- to high 60s on the South Shore and be cooler on the Twin Forks, he said.
